Hi all creative people,
Just wanted to say hi.
I’m Engeli, a Swedish filmmaker. I’m directing documentaries and dance films. I recently started to write one of my very first screenplays, I'm really enjoying it and I’m learning so much! All my free time (when I’m not writing on my script) goes into reading any script I can get my hands on, books about screenwriting, watch youtube clips, documentaries, listen to podcasts - everything I can find about screenwriting!
What are your best tips to learn more about writing a screenplay?
It could be anything, a link to an inspirational blog, a book title, a film…etc.
Looking forward to learning more, gain some inspiration and make some new connections here at stage 32.
Have a great day!

Welcome!
I recommend Syd Field's book on screenplays, as well as Stealing Fire from the Gods... but there's substitute for getting feedback from readers. There are script consultants who will help for a fee as well, of course -- quite valuable when your script is solid and you're looking to get it ready to pitch to investors.

Hi Engeli! Welcome to the Stage! Lots of great suggestions already, if you’ve never heard of it, I find “script to screen” videos very helpful. There are some on YouTube. Good luck with your career! :)
